4 Small buttons in assorted materials and design.
One is a transfer pattern on a division 1 bone button, another is an engraved metal ship from the 18th century, one is a small realistic purse with pearl OME and finally a small rare JET button. Jet is one of the rarest materials to find in buttons. Queen Victoria went into mourning for 40 years and wore black with black JET buttons and as a result the common folk wanted to emulate her but could not afford JET so they wore black glass which looked similar.
